Now that I know they *might* work together, here's the specific issue I'm having. I did deploy them together using two sets of everything (XML configs, JSPs, etc.). It's working to the point that Tiles 2 finds my Tiles 2 definition and is attempng to render it, however, it's not finding the definition's attributes in order to insert them. I've following the definition parsing into the Digester, and it's not assigning the attributes. I think I have an old Digester version. Is there a minimum version required for Tiles 2? I didn't see it mentioned anywhere. BTW, another aspect of configuration is that I've co-deployed Struts 1 and Struts 2, and I'm using Struts 2.0.6 with the version of Tiles 2 that is distributed with it. Thanks for the help and the correct information on the users list. -- David

I have a large project using Struts Tiles and would like to run both as I migrate it to Tiles 2. Yes and no. The API for Tiles 2 is drastically different from Struts Tiles so the two frameworks require separate XML files, separate configuration elements, and separate JSP pages. I don't think it will work to "merge" the two ( i.e. you probably can't just include Tiles 2 elements from Struts Tiles pages, etc.). The JAR files should be compatible but I'm not real sure how they will behave if co-deployed. We do have a task on the list to build a Struts-Tiles compatibility layer that would allow you to reuse Struts-Tiles pages and XML files with Tiles 2, but I have no idea when such a library will be available. (If you have ideas we'd gladly accept patches :-) PS - I would have posted this to the user list, but it's not accepting subscriptions. Wow, I just noticed that the website links to "tiles-user" instead of "tiles-users". To subscribe to "users" please send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'll try to get the site fixed. Thanks, Greg
